and applications to deliver priority, QoS,
and security in accordance with business
needs
• Seamless roaming across an entire multisubnet campus without the need for
cumbersome client software
• Integrated management, security, and
QoS features reduce operating cost and
ensure a consistent user experience
regardless of location
OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY
• Centralized visibility and control
from NetSight ™ accelerates problem
resolution, optimize network utilization,
and automate management
• Adaptive architecture reduces complexity
and optimizes information flow for
each application
• Dynamic Radio Management when used
for planning and monitoring ensures
optimal spectrum coverage resulting in
the best end-user quality of experience
• Flexible Client Access optimizes
throughput for 802.11ac/n clients in
today’s mixed ac, n, and a/b/g client
environments
Product Overview
The AP3825 is a high-performance 802.11ac and 802.11abgn indoor access point
purpose built for high-density deployments. This access point is designed to
operate in heavy-user and mission critical environments such as healthcare facilities,
universities, conference centers, arenas, and stadiums. Active/active data ports and
multiple power options ensure that the AP3825 provides always-on connectivity.
This high-performance access point is equally adept at serving high-bandwidth
video applications as well as low-latency voice applications. The AP3825i comes
with an integrated six antenna array for ease of installation. The AP3825e requires
professional installation and includes six RP-SMA antenna connectors supporting
both 2.4GHz and 5GHz band antennas. Unique to this class of access point, the
power ecient AP3825 uses 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) without reducing
its performance nor degrading its enterprise-grade capabilities. An optional
external power supply is available for deployments that do not support Power
over Ethernet.
The AP3825 is built on the newest Wi-Fi technology including 802.11ac, dynamic
radio management, and spectrum analysis with interference classification, beam
forming, self-forming and self-healing meshing, security, role-based authentication,
authorization, and access control. The 3x3:3 platform is capable of delivering
1.75Gbps over-the-air-performance and up to 75,000 packets per second on the
wire port. The use of a dual core CPU and a network co-processor for oine frame
processing ensures that there are no bottlenecks in the data path when packets
are processed through the slow path from the air-to-the wire. Multiple antenna
oerings (e.g., omni, sector, and panel) ensure that the AP3825e deployment can
be optimized to meet any coverage or capacity need.

SECURITY
• Authentication and authorization
functions include role-based access
control (using 802.1X, MAC, and captive
portal) and authentication at the AP
• Wireless Intrusion Prevention (WIPS)
functions provide continuous scanning,
threat classification, rogue AP detection,
and countermeasures against possible
attacks
• Integration of security policies (NAC,
IPS) across the wired/wireless networks
enables quick diagnosing and resolution
of security threats
• Integration of Policy Manager across the
wired/wireless networks dynamically
oversees user access at the wireless
network point of entry
SERVICE AND SUPPORT
• Industry-leading customer satisfaction
and first call resolution rates
• Lifetime warranty for indoor
access points
• Personalized services, including site
surveys, network design, installation,
and training
